A giant angry TURTLE?

Lol wtf
Ok no thats a new one
Get used to it tho, this place brings em in from all over
Even the freaks

?
Sure we can get a beer
That serious huh? U ok

[overarches]

i wouldn't call him a freak
i mean, i don't know if he was a guy in a costume or an actual turtle
he couldn't be real though, right?

( god, he doesn't want to think about that. )

i'm okay
she told me we were going to try dating and i don't want to tell her anything this city makes me do
or doesn't make me do

[bragnificent]

You'd be surprised bro
They got it all here no matter HOW impossible
Witches werewolves vampires superheroes ghosts like u name it

[ Reggie doesn't expect Archie to believe him on that point -- if their positions were reversed then Reggie probably wouldn't have -- but it doesn't really matter, Archie will find out on his own. ]

Wait u two are dating now?

[overarches]

superheroes? like who? anyone i would know of?

( if reggie is picturing him like a child, bouncing on his feet, he is correct. )

no. she just told me that when i was here before, i wanted to.
i'm with veronica.

[bragnificent]

Idk
Maybe?
Pretty sure no captain hero or batman or superman but theres alotta other ppl going around in masks and tights so maybe u'll get lucky

[ God, what a nerd. Reggie, on the other hand, is a veritable superhero pleb save for the extremely obvious ones. ]

Oh
So...
What dont u wanna tell her then?

[overarches]

i'm gonna camp out on the roof of the up apartments and see what happens

( try and stop him. )

you mean aside from the fact that i've slept with three people in my first week?
nothing.

[bragnificent]

I mean
Thats not so bad

[ Reggie doesn't remember how many people his first week involved, but he'd be surprised if it wasn't a similar number. ]

Veronica isnt here
Its not like its rly cheating

[overarches]

it's bad when one of your best friends wants to be in a relationship with you and you don't, but you're still sleeping with other people.

( but hey, in lieu of talking about his problems: )

are you going to sign a contract with her?

[bragnificent]

So like she said that then?
Betty wants to date but u dont?

[ Always awkward. Not insurmountable, though. ]

Not that I blame u tbh
Datings complicated
Especially around here
Sex otoh? Pretty simple by comparison


With who, Betty?
Yeah I mean like we've talked abt it

[overarches]

she said whether i wanted to honor what i said before or not doesn't matter because she had changed
but she still wanted to tell me

( so has she changed? )

do you have experience with dating here?

( pandora's box and archie with a crowbar. )

i'm only asking because i wanna know what happens if you don't. can i take the punishment for her?

[bragnificent]

Well
Thats confusing
Not even I know wtf that means

[ And oh boy, does he have experience with dating here. Whew, now that's a loaded question. Reggie bounces between typing, deleting, typing, deleting for a couple of indecisive cycles, then lets the textbox rest for a moment or two.

And then just decides not to answer that question. ]

No dude u can't
Would u relax? It's gonna happen

[overarches]

she said that time had passed
idk

( he doesn't miss reggie ignoring him but he also knows that betty mentioned a nick, someone he isn't about to namedrop. )

what about for other people? in general? is that something anyone can stand in on?

[bragnificent]

Are u guys just having sex then or not even that?

[ It's a very long, complicated story... or at least in Reggie's head it is. He wouldn't, doesn't, know how or where to start. ]

Not exactly
If a sub gets in too much trouble sometimes the dom can get into trouble too

And idk vice versa, probably

But I don't think just anyone can substitute for just anyone

[overarches]

with betty?? we grabbed milkshakes and talked.

( like always, you heathen. )

so i can't help anyone.
besides sleeping with them.

[bragnificent]

Ok ok I was just ASKING
Friggin chillax bro would u

[ Reggie has never really been completely clear on all the details of that love triangle (square?) (well, whatever you wanna call it), but that's good to know. ]

Anyway yeah
Well
Sex and contracts are the big ones
Keeps things kinda simple tho

[overarches]

if the last week taught me anything, it's never say never. i'm just saying not yet. i wanna keep my friendships if i can.

that's including you.

( it's a hectagon? )

maybe i haven't been here long enough, but nothing about signing yourself over to someone seems simple.

[bragnificent]

U know I've got ur back Archie
Bros 4 life, remember?

[ He isn't sure if Archie did or didn't mean to also imply "never say never" about the two of them, but Reggie isn't going to be the one to call attention to it. ]

And no not always but like, it can be
Sometimes
Either way like its not forever

[overarches]

and i have yours no matter what
bros 4 life

( say what? )

i wanna get on your level but i don't see that happening. maybe i haven't met the right sub yet. you know? that person i wanna help more than anyone else.

[bragnificent]

[ Oh nothing... he'll just keep any details about what happened When Archie Was Here Before to himself for now, thank you... ]

Look bro dont overthink it
Whoever its with its still just 3 months, udon't have to renew it if it doesnt work out
Like when I first got here this guy just came up and asked me, and I was like yeah ok why not?
And it actually worked out pretty good, so
